Tina's FrontPage Tips, by Tina Clarke

Open in a new window

I want all my links on one page to open up in a new window
and on another page I only want one of them to do this, how
can I make this happen?
A) For one link to be open in new window:
Select the link you want to open in a new window.
Click the hyperlink icon. Or press Control + K and the
Create Hyperlink box will come up. Click the 'Change Target
Frame' icon (like a pencil) next to where it says 'Target
Frame'. (For FrontPage 2002 ? click the Target Button on the
right-hand side)
Another box will pop up and you should select new window 
and press ok and save the page.
B) To select the whole page:
After selecting new window tick the box at the bottom where
it says 'set as page default' press ok and save the page.
The code that FrontPage inserts is:
<base target="_blank">
Which goes between your head tags.
NOTE: It is not a good idea to use this on pages with
internal links. Open in a new window is normally kept for
External links.

Wordpad Templates (win98) 

If you frequently use WordPad to do your word processing, 
you're probably getting tired of formatting every document 
(changing the font, typing the same heading, and so on). 
Does this thing come with templates or what? 
The answer is no, but that doesn't mean you can't make 
one. Just take a few minutes to do the formatting once,
and you'll have an instant time-saver. 

Open WordPad and make all the formatting changes you'd 
like to include in your template--for example, you might 
change the font and point size of the text. 
(Tip: Type at least one character and then assign these 
settings to it.) When you're finished, save the file in a 
convenient location using a name such as "template.tpl." 

Now instruct Windows to open any file with a .tpl extension 
in WordPad. 
Open any Explorer window and select View, Folder Options. 
On the File Types tab, click the New Type button. 
Next to Description Of Type, enter a description, such as 
"WordPad Template." 
Next to Associated Extension, type 

tpl 

Click New, and in the Action box of the New Action dialog box, 
type Open: 

Under Application Used To Perform Action, type WordPad's path, 
such as: 

C:\Program Files\Accessories\Wordpad.exe 

Finally, click OK three times to close all open dialog boxes. 

Ready to try it out? 
Double-click template.tpl and it opens in WordPad, 
complete with all your formatting. 
(Tip: Be sure to save it under a new name before 
creating a new document from the template.)
